Justin Vedder

Saddleback, Freshman

Football/Quarterback

Vedder, from Laguna Hills High, has benefited from having college choices. He started at Boston University but decided to return here. He enrolled at Saddleback, where he won the starting quarterback job and has improved each week. The main reason, Saddleback switched to a five-receiver set three weeks ago.

Vedder completed 23 of 36 passes for 364 yards and three touchdowns Saturday in Saddleback’s 31-12 victory over Golden West.
